Several weeks passed before we realised that the valiant armies there had laboured in vain, and that Sari-Bair had remained unconquered. We were far more conscious of the limited results of the battle on the Cape Helles side of Achi Baba.
The line of communications that linked the Achi Baba position with Maidos and Gallipoli was to be cut by our forces operating from Suvla and Anzac, and the Narrows were to be opened to our fleet by the capture of Sari-Bair. The epic of the actual Suvla effort has been nobly told in both Sir Ian Hamilton's dispatches and Mr Masefield's Gallipoli.
